VN Ren'Py Storm Serpent Chronicles [v0.11] [SolidDoc]

[SolidDoc]

I really admire developers who can extract good renders from this "graphics engine", it is terrible for creators.

You should have seen my first ones. Ugh..
I like how it looks, kind of a blend between realistic and cartoonish/fantasy style. And it was quite easy to pick up, especially for someone who doesn't know much about visuals.

Yeah... it needed a lot of work. I’ve got maybe a month left, two if I'm lucky. It was so painful to work on, knowing I wouldn’t get to finish what I started with the time remaining.
Sacrificed most of my free time back then, but there’s only so much I could do. Working two jobs, seven days a week, just to afford working on the game. And I’d keep going if I could, but I’ve run out of things to sacrifice. I can’t risk being homeless for 40-something euros a month on patreon.
I don’t blame anyone but myself in the end. The game felt mid to me anyways.
This is all I can afford now. Soon, not even that.

Sounds like you're just feeling sorry for yourself. No offense, but this kind of attitude isn't going to inspire anyone to support you. I didn't play your other game so I don't know if it's good or bad but I will say that there are a lot of games out there that don't get the attention they deserve.

I'm just some rando on the internet so feel free to ignore me but my advice would be to just step away now and stop beating yourself up. Get your real life issues sorted out and come back to game development without this sort of thing hanging over you.

I'm not asking for support. Not anymore. I've warned people that paid before it happened, now paused the billing, issued refunds. Always tried to do right by fellow players.
I got nothing to step away to, my life sucks. Working on the game is the only joy I had left, so I am clinging to it like a fool.
Was a decent run, but it wasn't enough.

All I can say is that I wish you the best & hope you can get your financial situation sorted out. I do appreciate your honestly but the truth is, most people aren't going to be excited to try out a new release that will likely see no updates. No matter how good it is.

I know. It's mostly for myself at this point. Can't sit still.
